The appearance of this Space Wormhole Generator was completely different from the one Shen Feng had previously found in the Shield UY Star Realm.
It was more streamlined, resembling a blooming flower or an open umbrella.
Shen Feng had already used the Gray Tide to perform a comprehensive scan of the Wormhole Generator. He had inspected its entire structure and internal energy circulation, completely recording all data and parameters. It was safe to say he knew the device like the back of his hand.
The device’s construction was extremely complex. Much of the technology within it clearly didn’t belong to the original human civilization, but originated from the mysterious Obelisk.
By comparing it with the Space Wormhole Technology he’d acquired from the Shield UY Star Realm, Shen Feng quickly found a technical trap and a design flaw within this Wormhole Generator.
This design backdoor meant the Space Wormhole Generator could only breach specific spatial barriers, leading to a single, predetermined spatial node.
The very place where the Myriad Wills resided.
But for the human civilization of the Dark Apocalypse, which could only grasp Space Wormhole Technology by relying on the Obelisk, there was no way for them to know any of this. They opened the Space Wormhole and brought ruin upon themselves.
"Shen Feng, I’ve used the Gray Tide to repair the flaws in this Space Wormhole Generator. As long as we input the coordinates and simultaneously transfer energy from a star’s core to it through a quantum channel, we can open a Space Wormhole to a specific spatial node."
Jingwei praised him, a hint of surprise in her voice, "This is really something... It’s far beyond the level of technology that human civilization can currently master. It’s like a kindergartener suddenly being given the power to fly a plane."
Shen Feng nodded and smiled.
"There’s more. I’ve found some interesting things in the records left behind by this world’s ’Shen Feng.’ The Space Wormhole Generator’s capabilities go far beyond this. The process of probing with the energy vernier yielded some curious byproducts. Want to come see them with me?"
As he spoke, Shen Feng’s consciousness tendrils extended from the Silicon-Based Brain and into the Space Wormhole Generator floating in space. Jingwei’s own consciousness followed close behind.
Shen Feng gently activated the Space Wormhole Generator’s energy intake system. Soon, a stream of energy from the star’s core flowed into it.
Immediately, light and shadow signals flashed to life within the Space Wormhole Generator’s internal systems!
Shen Feng quickly routed the signals to a smooth, mirror-like screen formed by the Gray Tide. A blurry, static-filled image instantly appeared. It flickered and jumped, streaked with lines, like an old black-and-white television set.
As the energy flow stabilized, the image gradually came into focus.
It was a vast, brilliant starscape!
The image zoomed in again, revealing a Star Realm.
Within this Star Realm was an azure planet. Judging by the geography, it was unmistakably Earth. But orbiting the planet were seven moons, which even formed a planetary ring!
"Xiaofeng, could this be...?" Jingwei’s voice trembled with excitement, having already guessed what the image was.
Shen Feng quickly replied,
"That’s right. It’s a Parallel Cosmos reflection! By changing the coordinate values that represent cosmic dimensions and lowering the power input to a minimum—far too low to open a Space Wormhole—we can receive image data from a Parallel Cosmos!"
Shen Feng entered a new set of coordinates, and the image on the screen shifted. This time, it showed a planet completely fractured, its cracks glowing with lava. Orbiting it was another, equally shattered world.
This, too, was an Earth.
A world that had already been destroyed.
The reflection changed again, this time revealing a completely frozen world. It could hardly be called Earth anymore; "ice ball" seemed more appropriate.
Shen Feng frowned and changed the cosmic dimension coordinates again.
A relatively normal-looking Earth appeared in the reflection. This one also had a moon, and its orbit was filled with numerous artificial satellites. It looked far more stable and peaceful.
Shen Feng breathed a sigh of relief. But just as he was preparing to observe this world more closely, a flash of light suddenly erupted from the planet’s surface. A massive, orange shockwave expanded outward, immediately followed by a mushroom cloud.
Through the reflection, they could see missiles lifting off from all corners of the globe, trailing long contrails as they flew toward targets across the planet. Then, massive, fiery mushroom clouds bloomed...
Shen Feng sighed and quickly changed the reflection again. This time, a barren, rocky planet appeared.
He then began rapidly changing the coordinates, and the scenes in the reflection shifted one after another.
Most of the Parallel Cosmos Earths that appeared in the reflection had already been reduced to ruins or a silent Hell. Only a few still seemed peaceful and prosperous.
Shen Feng kept changing the coordinates. One after another, Earths from countless Parallel Cosmoses appeared before him and Jingwei. The experience was truly eye-opening.
Suddenly, the reflection changed again. What appeared before them was no longer an Earth, but a field of brownish-yellow that filled the entire screen.
Shen Feng frowned. ’Could the Earth in this Parallel Cosmos have been flattened into two dimensions?’
By adjusting the Space Wormhole Generator’s parameters, the view suddenly zoomed out to roughly the distance of the Moon, but the image remained a field of brownish-yellow.
Jingwei silently adjusted the parameters again. This time, the view pulled back to encompass the entire Solar System.
In the next instant, both Shen Feng and Jingwei couldn’t help but gasp.
What appeared in the reflection was a colossal life-form!
The life-form looked like a monster made of countless tentacles, filling the entire view. The field of brownish-yellow they had seen earlier was, unbelievably, one of the colossal creature’s eyes!
The diameter of that single eye was as wide as the entire Earth-Moon System!
The monster filled the entire Solar System. The Sun itself looked like a mere lightbulb, coiled by the monster’s body as if for warmth.
As for the planets that had once existed in the Solar System, they were nowhere to be found!
Only, on certain parts of the massive monster’s body, there were patches of clinging lava and dust—perhaps the last remnants of the Solar System’s former planets.
Shen Feng narrowed his eyes. Despite the reflection before him, the monster’s form was blurry and chaotic, its true shape almost impossible to discern.
But he knew one thing for sure: this was, without a doubt, a World Beast!
’How could a World Beast be so enormous!?’
’What in the world is it?’
’Is it sentient?’
As Shen Feng was pondering this, the brownish-yellow eye—larger than tens of thousands of planets combined—suddenly turned to look right at him!
Even though they were separated by the Space Wormhole Generator and countless layers of spatial barriers, that glance from another Parallel Cosmos made Shen Feng’s blood run cold. It was as if the terrifying creature had seen through the walls between universes and discovered his surveillance!
Just then, the Space Wormhole Generator in space suddenly erupted in a shower of sparks!
